For a small-town boy, Dhoni has handled fame and his fortunes much better than many of his predecessors. In fact he is the first of the several small-town boys, who have enriched Indian cricket in the new millennium.
For a rustic boy, ‘Helicopter Man’ Dhoni has marketed himself well. After leading India to victory in the 2011 World Cup, Dhoni became the most sought-after Indian cricketer as various brands fells over themselves to promote their products.
In an action-packed 12-year international career, Dhoni has tasted unprecedented success in all three formats of the game, including the glamorous IPL. Off the field he has made his millions too. He is not done yet. If his sturdy frame permits, he can easily go on for a couple of more years and bow out in 2019 post the ICC World Cup that will be his fourth.
You can hardly grudge him that.
